RAS KASS – F.L.Y. (PRODUCED BY DJ GREEN LANTERN)

Ras Kass is closing in on the release of Soul On Ice 2 and applies his lauded verbal gymnastics over a DJ Green Lantern production with “F.L.Y. (F*ck Last Year).”

“F.L.Y. is actually my ode to Prince’s 1999. It’s a Hip-Hop New Year’s song,” Kass told AFH. “The triple-entendre being it’s an acronym for ‘F*ck Last Year’ and ‘FLY,’ as in ‘time flies why you’re having fun.’ Also, in the Hip-Hop lifestyle, you want to dress and act ‘fly.’ It’s wavy.”

NAS – COPS KEEP FIRING (GREEN LANTERN REMIX)

DJ Green Lantern continues his onslaught of remixing old songs from the vault and this time Nas gets the treatment.

For the mixtape, Nas game me a bunch of vocals from songs he wasn’t gonna use and I made new songs with those. “Cops Keep Firing” originally started as an extra verse he didn’t use on “Be A N*&^ Too.” I made a new beat, added the scratch hook and when he heard it he did a new second verse too it. Up until now it’s only been available on that mixtape (with shout outs, drops, etc). Here it is, CDQ and re-mastered for heavy knock in your Beats be Dre’s.
